A new postcode is often a new street or estate, but Royal Mail also makes new postcodes when it reorganises old ones, so not every one means new homes. Only postcodes still in use are counted.

Is Berkeley at risk of flooding?

11 of the 69 postcodes in Berkeley have a home or business in an area at risk of flooding from rivers or the sea, the Environment Agency says. At those, it puts 28 homes and businesses in an area at high or medium risk.

Homes and businesses in an area at risk, at 11 of 69 postcodes High: 20Medium: 8Low: 16Very low: 23

High: 3.3% or more a year (1 in 30). Medium: 1% to 3.3% a year. Low: 0.1% to 1% a year. Very low: under 0.1% a year (1 in 1,000). Each band is the chance of flooding in any one year.

Homes and businesses in an area at risk of flooding from rivers or the sea, as the Environment Agency counts them, added up over the postcodes. It is for the land, not each building, and leaves out surface water, groundwater and sewers. Each postcode page has its own figures and its flood warning areas.

Is Berkeley safe? Crime recorded around it

Police.uk records 147 crimes and reports of anti-social behaviour within a mile of the middle of the postcodes in Berkeley over the 12 months from February 2025 to January 2026. Gloucestershire Constabulary has published no figures to Police.uk after January 2026, though Police.uk has figures to August 2026 for other forces. These figures run to January 2026, so no month is counted without them. These are counts, not a rate: we hold no count of the people who live, work or pass through, so we do not say whether a place is safe.

Police.uk says its locations "always represent the approximate location of a crime". Each crime is moved to the nearest of a fixed list of map points, each over a street centre, a public place or a commercial premises, chosen so that every point covers at least eight addresses or none. A mile is a wide circle: in a town it takes in the centre and its shops, where much crime is recorded.
